Anthony Trollope 1815 - 1882

In the ground around Sydney Harbour you will find circular bronze plaques with wise words quoted from learned writers like Anthony Trollope.     (Click on any image for a larger version.) What was his name?  Trollope? But it is to him that we attribute the traditional British red pillar box,  so he can't be all bad.

Parting is such sweet sorrow.

The group of people pictured below got together in Australia and pooled their skills and talents and humour and shared some extraordinary experiences. That delicious 'end of term' feeling fills all our hearts as we go our separate ways in the certain knowledge we will meet again. I found the picture HERE with story.

Never have those words sounded so good. It was only after returning from Canowindra to Sydney that I realised just how  much adrenalin I have been using. So when my body heard the magic words 'It's a wrap' it said 'OK, time to rest.'  So I now find myself wandering around like a zombie slowly recharging my batteries. Last night, my batteries were boosted by the wrap party , where accolades were handed out and the legendary egg trick performed!! (Click on images for larger size.) George Clooney was seen lurking in the bushes on location recently..... The rare moments Adam has to himself, he relentlessly practices his dance moves so when the time comes, he can remind us all he is THE MAN. And whenever Sarah finds time, she practices her cheer-leading skills twirling the baton. Is there no end to this girl's skills?? Richard bought me a box of matches a few days ago, and only a handful of us know just how precious that simple purchase proved to be!
